The High Court in Pretoria has heard that former Dudu Myeni, is dishonest, flouted governance procedures and should, therefore, be declared a delinquent director. via SABCNewsOnline

, is dishonest, flouted governance procedures and should, therefore, be declared a delinquent director.

OUTA and SAA Pilots Association approached the High Court in a bid to declare her a delinquent director for life. The organisations accuse Myeni of obstructing key deals and interfering in operational issues.The court heard closing arguments from both parties on Friday. Myeni has been on trial for allegedly trying to stop a deal between SAA and Airbus so she could introduce a middle man.

“The chairperson on her own had no such powers. In other words, if she had signed in her capacity as chair it would have changed nothing because it needed board approval and if the board approved in the alternative and she refused to sign, same outcome. She had no special power of her own. So this allegation departs from a very flawed premise that presupposes that the chairperson had this authority to act singularly.

“In her actions and importantly in these proceedings, Ms Myeni, has repeatedly shown gross dishonesty. She’s shown absolutely no contrition or remorse. At no point did she concede that she had done anything wrong. Perhaps most galling of all is to keep saying you can’t hold me accountable because of a collective and unless and until Ms Myeni understands that in law you can’t hide behind a collective. She’s simply not fit to be a board member.
